sched: Handle priority boosted tasks proper in setscheduler()

2015-05-08T09:53:55Z

Ronny reported that the following scenario is not handled correctly: T1 (prio = 10) lock(rtmutex); T2 (prio = 20) lock(rtmutex) boost T1 T1 (prio = 20) sys_set_scheduler(prio = 30) T1 prio = 30 .... sys_set_scheduler(prio = 10) T1 prio = 30 The last step is wrong as T1 should now be back at prio 20. Commit c365c292d059 ("sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()") only handles the case where a boosted tasks tries to lower its priority. Fix it by taking the new effective priority into account for the decision whether a change of the priority is required.

locking/rtmutex: Set state back to running on error

2015-03-01T08:45:06Z

The "usual" path is: - rt_mutex_slowlock() - set_current_state() - task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() (ret 0) - __rt_mutex_slowlock() - sleep or not but do return with __set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) - back to caller. In the early error case where task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() return -EDEADLK we never change the task's state back to RUNNING. I assume this is intended. Without this change after ww_mutex using rt_mutex the selftest passes but later I get plenty of: | bad: scheduling from the idle thread! backtraces.

locking/rtmutex: Avoid a NULL pointer dereference on deadlock

2015-02-18T09:20:32Z

With task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() returning early -EDEADLK we never add the waiter to the waitqueue. Later, we try to remove it via remove_waiter() and go boom in rt_mutex_top_waiter() because rb_entry() gives a NULL pointer. ( Tested on v3.18-RT where rtmutex is used for regular mutex and I tried to get one twice in a row. ) Not sure when this started but I guess 397335f004f4 ("rtmutex: Fix deadlock detector for real") or commit 3d5c9340d194 ("rtmutex: Handle deadlock detection smarter").

locking/rtmutex: Optimize setting task running after being blocked

2015-02-04T06:57:42Z

We explicitly mark the task running after returning from a __rt_mutex_slowlock() call, which does the actual sleeping via wait-wake-trylocking. As such, this patch does two things: (1) refactors the code so that setting current to TASK_RUNNING is done by __rt_mutex_slowlock(), and not by the callers. The downside to this is that it becomes a bit unclear when at what point we block. As such I've added a comment that the task blocks when calling __rt_mutex_slowlock() so readers can figure out when it is running again. (2) relaxes setting current's state through __set_current_state(), instead of it's more expensive barrier alternative. There was no need for the implied barrier as we're obviously not planning on blocking.

rtmutex: Avoid pointless requeueing in the deadlock detection chain walk

2014-06-21T20:05:31Z

In case the dead lock detector is enabled we follow the lock chain to the end in rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain, even if we could stop earlier due to the priority/waiter constellation. But once we are no longer the top priority waiter in a certain step or the task holding the lock has already the same priority then there is no point in dequeing and enqueing along the lock chain as there is no change at all. So stop the queueing at this point.

rtmutex: Cleanup deadlock detector debug logic

2014-06-21T20:05:30Z

The conditions under which deadlock detection is conducted are unclear and undocumented. Add constants instead of using 0/1 and provide a selection function which hides the additional debug dependency from the calling code. Add comments where needed.

rtmutex: Confine deadlock logic to futex

2014-06-21T20:05:30Z

The deadlock logic is only required for futexes. Remove the extra arguments for the public functions and also for the futex specific ones which get always called with deadlock detection enabled. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Reviewed-by: Steven Rostedt
